A 2nd Grade Paper Towel Bride ...

Today we gave LeAnna's teacher a surprise Wedding Shower at school ... Ms. Stewart is getting married on October 17th ...

she was very surprised!

the kids had a blast ...

I was asked to take pictures and do games ...

this was a bit difficult, because most wedding shower games are NOT for kids!

however ... I decided to break the kids up into teams and let them "choose and decorate" a bride out of toilet paper ...

well ... got to the dollar store to buy toilet paper and wouldn't you know - they didn't have any!!!

so ... I grabbed 8 rolls of paper towels and scotch tape!

... LeAnna's group chose her to be the bride ... there were 4 groups total ... they had so much fun!

It was really funny to watch them!











then ... as a "favor/memory" of the shower ... I had each child fill out a card of "wedding advice" for Ms. Stewart and then I'm compiling them into a booklet as a keepsake ... there were some funny ones ... this one was so funny to me ...




It was a fun afternoon ...
happy day ... tammy

What a cute idea! I'm sure the kids will never forget.

That's twice here recently that we've seen Leanna dressed as a "bride"...
